Inclusion & environment

## How they support every child

SEND provision

Staff have an excellent understanding of child development. They use meticulous assessments to ensure that children with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND), and children in receipt of additional funding, have the targeted support that they need from the very start. Staff work with other professionals involved in children's learning and development to help them deliver targeted interventions, to meet their individual needs.

Outdoor space

Children display impressive strength as they carry and roll heavy items in the garden. Staff encourage them to roll tyres high up the hill to watch them roll down.

EAL / language support

Staff learn key words in the languages that children speak. They support all children, including those who speak English as an additional language, to become confident communicators.
